Shen Rou felt aggrieved. She had done nothing wrong. Her father becoming the chief clerk was the most impressive thing she could boast of in her life.

"Mom, it's all because of that bitch Lin Ting, why didn't you help me..."

A slap landed on Shen Rou's face, and Xu's face was cold.

"Tell me if you have anything to say!"

After Shen Rou and Xu left, Lin Ting immediately found a book about official ranks from Shen Qingzhou's books and started reading it.

Although there was an 80% chance that Shen Jizu had been cheated out of money, she still wanted to see what the requirements were to become the chief clerk of the county government.

After flipping through a few pages, Lin Ting stopped and looked. Now she was finally relieved.

As for the position of chief clerk in the county government, one must pass the imperial examination and be recommended by someone before being entrusted with the important task.

Or only if a scholar in the county has made significant and outstanding contributions to the county can he be promoted to the chief clerk of a county.

Of course, unless the county magistrate is a corrupt official, the Shen family must have a fortune.

In the main house of the Shen family, Shen Rou stroked her face that had just been beaten and came to Shen Jizu to cry.

"Daddy, that bitch Lin Ting scolded me and my mother beat me, but I didn't do anything wrong."

"Rou'er, when this matter is settled, Daddy will make Lin Ting regret it."

Xu caressed Shen Rou's hair behind her ears and comforted her.

"Although Lin Ting is annoying, what she said is not wrong. Your father spent so much money to contact the old chief clerk's brother.

In addition, he accidentally saved the old chief clerk in the past. Because of this favor, the old chief clerk was willing to recommend your father to take over his official position.

Just wait another month. After one month, the old chief clerk's term will expire. After the county magistrate confirms it, your father will be the new chief clerk.

At this juncture, you must restrain yourself, otherwise if something unexpected happens to Hang Seng, everything will be over."

Shen Rou wiped her tears and admitted that she was too anxious.

After two days of drying, all the calamus leaves were dried. At dawn, Shen Qingzhou was at home taking care of Shen Wanyi.

Lin Ting, Shen Dali and Yang Xiuxiu packed their backpacks early and rushed to Wenzhu County.

Although the backpack was also full this time, it was much lighter.

The two elders were afraid that Lin Ting couldn't carry it, so there were no more than 30 kilograms of dried calamus in her backpack.

The rest were carried away by Shen Dali and Yang Xiuxiu on a shoulder pole.

After walking for an hour, they finally arrived in Wenzhu County at Chenshi. The three of them did not stop and went directly to Wanhetang.

This time, Lin Tinglai did not see Wan Weiran in front of the medicine cabinet, so she asked the medicine boy in front.

"Hello, I'm here to sell calamus. I made an appointment with your Doctor Wan last time."

When the medicine boy saw that the person coming was Lin Ting, he was stunned at first, and then his face was full of surprise.

"You must be Madam Lin, our Doctor Wan has been waiting for you for several days and thought you would not come to sell calamus.

Doctor Wan is in the backyard. He has instructed that whenever you come, you should be taken directly to the backyard to see him."

Lin Ting thought she was not familiar with Wan Weiran, but he helped her anyway.

"Please lead the way, little brother!"

It was the first time for Shen Dali and Yang Xiuxiu to enter such a large clinic, and they looked a little helpless with their body language and expressions.

They followed Lin Ting with shoulder poles on their shoulders, and covered the calamus in Lin Ting's backpack with cloth.

Shen Dali was very nervous. He was afraid that Wanhetang would suddenly stop accepting their medicinal materials.

As soon as he walked to the backyard, Wan Weiran heard the medicine boy coming to tell him that Lin Ting had brought the herbs to sell again. He immediately put down all the herbs in his hands.

"Mrs. Lin, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

When they met again, Lin Ting was still the man in shabby clothes, and Wan Weiran was still the elegant young man.

Wan Weiran thought that Lin Ting was living in financial difficulty and would definitely bring herbs to sell the next day, so he studied her method of treating cadaveric syncope.

I have been thinking about it for several days but still can't figure out what the pathology of this treatment is and why bloodletting can cure it.

This made him very anxious, so he wanted to ask Lin Ting for advice again, but he waited for a few days and Lin Ting didn't come back, and he didn't know where Lin Ting lived, so he was very anxious.

"Doctor Wan, I brought a lot of medicinal herbs this time. The quality can definitely meet the standards for medicinal use."

Yang Xiuxiu and Shen Dali stood behind Lin Ting. It was their first time talking to a nobleman like Wan Weiran, and they felt timid.

"Madam Lin, I'd really like to ask you for advice on treating cadaveric syncope."

Lin Ting understood and put down the backpack behind him.

"Doctor Wan, I'm also in a hurry to sell this medicinal herb."

Wan Weiran smiled elegantly, told the medicine boy to bring the scale, and made some tea, then invited Lin Ting, Shen Dali and Yang Xiuxiu to sit down.

"Who are these two?"

Lin Ting stood up and introduced Shen Dali and Yang Xiuxiu to Wan Weiran.

"This is my father-in-law Shen Dali, and this is my mother-in-law Yang Xiuxiu. They are the ones who love me the most."

Looking at the clothes worn by several people, Wan Weiran did not show any disgust.

"It turns out to be my uncle and aunt, my nephew Wan Weiran, a native of the capital, who knows some medical skills and is a friend of Madam Lin."

Shen Dali stood up at a loss, not knowing what to say to Wan Weiran, so he could only nod and smile.

"You're a doctor? Then this clinic is also yours?"

"Wanhetang is the clinic where I make a living in Wenzhu County."

The position of doctor is a respected position. The man dressed as a nobleman claimed to be Lin Ting's friend. Lin Ting had only come to him once to sell medicinal herbs.

If Lin Ting really became friends with Doctor Wan, perhaps Qingzhou's legs...

Shen Dali only dared to think about it, after all, their family had no money.

"Doctor Wan, our calamus are all washed, cut, and dried. What do you think of the price?"

The best time to discuss the price of this batch of medicinal materials is before the other party asks her a question.

Wan Weiran walked to the place where the three people placed the calamus, picked up the calamus with his hands to see if there were any impurities.

Then put it to the tip of your nose and smell the odor, and finally put it in your mouth to taste the medicinal properties.

"Yes, the quality meets the standard of the clinic, but Madam Lin, business is business. I can only give you the same price as the trading company for this herb."

All Wan Weiran could do was to give Lin Ting the same amount of silver he and Shang Xing bought for the medicinal materials.

Lin Ting: "Tell me about it!"

"The herbal medicine merchant gave me this kind of good calamus for fifty coins per pound. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask around."

A person who tells the truth even has a different look in her eyes, although she doesn't know the price of medicinal herbs in this world.

But if you round it off, it's about the same. After all, there are a lot of dried calamus slices in a pound.

"I believe that Doctor Wan is a kind-hearted person. Moreover, doctors are like parents to their children, so he will not cheat farmers like us."

"Mrs. Lin, there's no need to flatter me. I really want to make friends with you."

Lin Ting could tell that he wanted to test whether he knew medical skills, or in other words, whether he knew acupuncture.

"I'm happy to make friends like Dr. Wan."

Two medicine boys brought the scale from the front hall and took the initiative to help Lin Ting and them weigh the calamus.
